From north to south, east to west,
these memoirs are a testimony to the
devastating years following the stock
market crash of 1929. As seen through
the eyes and memories of the young,
a common thread weaves between the
lines of these fascinating accounts
that social class distinctions fell
away because everyone was in the same
boat. To capture the flavor of the
time, these stories remain almost
as they were submitted. A sample of
the regions covered are: Houston,
Port Arthur, LaGrange, Victoria, Waco,
Palestine and Grapeland, Texas; Frederick,
Hastings and Fay, Oklahoma; Shreveport,
LA; Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Natchez,
Mississippi; Sioux Mission in North
Dakota; Cumberland Mountains in Kentucky;
An Illinois farm; Indiana; Saginaw,
Michigan; Buffalo and Albany, New
York; Newark, New Jersey; Spain.

FOR STUDENTS OF RESEARCH, HISTORY,
OR FOR JUST REMINISCING, THIS IS AN
EXTRAORDINARY READ.
